Sidebar question - Do you guys happen to know what Physics score I should be getting with my X5675 at 4.2GHz in 3dMark Firestrike?

I don't but you can look it up on the 3DMark website. They have a stats list.

3DMark.com search

3DMark.com search

As you can see from that search, there is a solid set of examples of what you can expect from your X5675, which is pretty solid IMHO.

Thanks for the welcome.

Yeah from poking around YT and other forums the bottleneck won't be much at 3440x1440p. And sorry forgot to mention the game I was getting a mix of 25-42 fps. lex was correct in assuming it was Cyberpunk 2077.

I will definitely aim to upgrade next year, but for the time being I gotta work with what I have. The GTX 1080 has definitely served me well over the years, but it may be time to part with it.

Ah cool i see i have gtx 1050 ti overclocked to 1936mhz and memory is 3804mhz. I have x5675 @ 4.25ghz @ 1.280v. I usually lock the fps to 30 or 60 depending on games. As for cyberpunk it seems nearly to max out my physical 12gb ram onboard.

Question about the 34 inch ultrawide monitor which one do you have and what framerate is it capable of? 60/120/144hz

Anyone know any good 1366 boards that take 6 dimms? I've got a nice little 12GB kit and a case I really want to use, but no clue on a board to use. I was thinking of getting another 6x2 kit but the SR-2 already has 48GB, and having another Xeon rig would be nice.

Not looking for a high end overclocking board, just a single socket, standard ATX board.

Well I owned Asus P6X58D Premium motherboard and I have 3x8Gb and 3x2Gb for total of 30Gb of ram in it and never ever have the problem with that mobo,I am 100% sure that could work with 48gb configuration if I have it beside that It was also GREAT motherboard for OC...VRM on that mobo was AWESOME 16+2 power phases + it also have USB 3....

Found one on the ebays, gonna see if I can snag it in time.

Well IF you can get it for the "right" price and IF is it in good condition all I can say is go for it!!!
P.S.I was keep in touch with the guy that I sold that mobo and he have 6x4gb and also never have the issue

There is one on there for $120, and that includes an i7 950 (it'll probably go somewhere)

I guess that's a good price....I also reckon the good thing is that have inside I7 950 not because you will get that CPU for free but because it's more likely that owner didn't OC and probably never change that CPU for the 6c Xeon which means that mobo was not pushed to the limits....and that is a good thing...anyway the VRM on that mobo is probably one of the BEST(If not THE BEST)that I ever saw.......

@ Toothless- I'll sell you my Gigabyte X58A-UD3R For $75 and shipping. You already know my stuff is mint. PM me if interested.

 

[Edwired]

Interesting So far cyberpunk 2077 behaving itself with minor glitches other than that some stuttering due to one or two of the settings that called slow hhd mode which is enabled and enable analytics is disabled seems to help to get better performance overall

@Toothless, this is an awesome offer! Go for it!

EDIT;
@Mr.Scott
You sir are a boss! Stay awesome!
I looked up the going rate for that board, holy crap!

 

[N/A]

E5-4627 v4
3.20 GHz

 

[Edwired]

Did abit digging about the voltage read points on the board but can't find anything. Good news I found the qpi/vtt voltage it found nearby the northbridge heatpipe closest to the grey choke. What concerning me is the voltage it reading 1.337v by dmm but the bios is set to 1.26250v that is to me is overvolting quite abit 0.0745v

Any recommendations for a Xeon for a socket 1150 Z87-Z97 mobo? My 4790K was damaged when an Arctic LF II 240 malfunctioned recently and I've been using a borrowed 4790K since. No gaming, some A/V production work, movie watching and web surfing. I was going to transplant one of my E5 1680 V2 platforms into the rig but I'm too lazy to reinstall the OS plus all of the programs. It's an ASRock Z87 Extreme6 and several Xeons are listed as compatible by ASRock. Integrated graphics not needed, a Xeon that works best for video production across all cores is what I want. Any ideas?

Whichever has the full 4c/8t and clocks the highest.

How it got damaged? Though it shut down cause of the temperature been excessed

It didn't shut down when it was supposed to, went way over max operating temperature. AIO suddenly stopped working.

Suppose you turned off all the safety options in the bios and it cooked itself to death after the AIO gave up the ghost. I don't trust the AIO one bit

I didn't turn off anything. I was watching a movie and suddenly a warning popped up the CPU was at 200 F (93.3 C). It shut down then. Intel says the max CPU temp is 73 C. I put the old AIO back in and it was running a lot warmer than it had originally. The Arctic LF II 240 that died was brand new. Amazon sent me a RMA replacement and it still ran hot. Put the original 6+ year old Corsair H105 back in, borrowed another 4790K and things are back to normal. I have to give the borrowed 4790K back, am thinking of going Xeon for the replacement.

 

[Edwired]

Yep that would explain the hot temp and didn't shut down correctly. Did you overclock it or left it stock when this happened?

Tcase stated 74c at the ihs for the 4790k not 100% sure for max core temp for throttle or shut down.

 

[Toothless]

Got some goodies coming in for the SR-2. More spots for fans, connectors, and gotta fix the two main intakes not spinning.

Also the 2680v2 is being dumb. I've never seen a desktop sit on a BSOD for days

What is wrong with the 2680 v2?

I think the OS shat itself or something. It's literally only done WCG for weeks now and updates for some reason take a few dozen tries to finally go through.

Hmmm...Did you maybe check your system SD/HD for possible errors?

Been too busy with work and school to look at it. Didn't sign up for overtime this weekend so I can get some projects done.
